Job Description

OUR MISSION

Imagine building a better healthcare journey for patients with cancer, where individuals and their loved ones feel seen, supported, and heard by their care team – both in and out of the clinic. Where fast access to high-quality care is the norm, not the exception. Where patients have access to a care navigator to guide them through their diagnosis and trusted support all along the way.

At Thyme Care, we share a passion for transforming the cancer care experience – not just for patients but also for their caregivers and loved ones, as well as those delivering and paying for their care. Today, Thyme Care is known predominantly as a cancer care navigation company enabling value-based cancer care; in the next few years, we will become a nationally recognized technology-driven and provider-centric care delivery model, reshaping the landscape of cancer care access, delivery, and experience. Our commitment runs deep—we're not satisfied with the status quo but determined to redefine it.

To make this happen, we’re building a diverse team of problem solvers and critical thinkers to drive innovation and shape the future of healthcare. If you share our vision and want to be part of something truly meaningful, we want to hear from you. Together, we can revolutionize cancer care and make a difference that lasts a lifetime.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

As an After Hours Virtual Care Nurse Practitioner, you will deliver care using Thyme Care’s platform, phone, or synchronous audio & video during nights and weekends. You’ll have the opportunity to support members with off-hours, time-sensitive needs by clinically assessing the urgency and severity of symptoms and directing the appropriate care through direct management, a recommendation for a next-day appointment, or a referral for an emergent in-person evaluation.

This is a remote, part-time role. Compensation will include a $1000 weekly retainer plus $100 per hour for every hour in which a call begins.

Your primary duties will include:

  • Answering inbound clinical calls or texts, assessing clinical status, and triaging to the appropriate level of care
  • Managing clinical care telephonically or via synchronous audio & video during non-business hours - arranged in 7 on/7 off shifts
  • Using our Thyme Care & EHR (Elation) platforms to document appropriately, place orders, and schedule follow-up tasks
  • Providing member-centered, trauma-informed, evidence-based medical care in alignment with Thyme Care Medical Group guidelines, practices, and policies
  • Collaboration with Thyme Care RNs, non-clinical staff, and physicians

WHAT YOU’VE DONE

You must possess the following required education and qualifications:

  • F-NP/AG-NP, APRN-MSN, or D-NP degree from an accredited nursing school
  • On-call availability to support during non-business hours, including weekdays from 8 PM to 8 AM ET, and all day on weekend days (Friday from 8 PM through Monday at 8 AM). (All times Eastern)
  • Unrestricted compact RN and APN license to practice medicine in a majority of the following states:
    • Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, District of Columbia, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Michigan, Mississippi, Missouri, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, Washington, Wisconsin
  • 3+ years experience in oncology or emergency medicine/urgent care, with virtual care experience
  • Spanish fluency is a plus but not required

WHAT LEADS TO SUCCESS

People-first. Thyme Care’s mission and members matter deeply to you.
Experience. You have at least 3 years of oncology or emergency medicine/urgent care experience, including interacting with patients with complex medical, behavioral health, and social needs. You have an unrestricted medical license and graduated from an accredited medical school.
Organized. You’re skilled in juggling multiple tasks and working under pressure without sacrificing organization in your communications and documentation.
Effective listener and communicator. You are winsome and articulate, but you always start with listening, and you hear what may not be voiced because you listen so intently to others. You build rapport and great working relationships with members and colleagues.
Comfort with ambiguity. Start-ups are fast-paced environments, and you understand that rapid changes to the business, strategy, organization, and priorities are par for the course… and part of the adventure.
A desire to learn how to use new technologies. We are a technology company focused on interacting with folks during the season when they need it most. Experience with video chatting, Google Suite, Slack, electronic health records, or comfort in using and learning new technology is important.
Identify priorities and take action. You know how to identify and prioritize a member's needs, and do what it takes to immediately address urgent and important needs.

OUR VALUES

At Thyme Care, our core values guide us in everything we do: Act with our members in mind, Move with purpose, and Seek diverse perspectives. They anchor our business decisions, including how we grow, the products we make, and the paths we choose—or don’t choose.

We recognize a history of inequality in healthcare. We’re here to challenge the status quo and create a culture of inclusion through the care we give and the company we build. We embrace and celebrate a diversity of perspectives in reflection of our members and the members we serve. We are an equal-opportunity employer.

Be cautious of recruitment fraud, and always confirm that communications are coming from an official Thyme Care email.

Safe Remote Job Search Tips

Verify Employer Thoroughly

Research the company's identity thoroughly before applying. Check for a professional website with contacts, active social media, and LinkedIn profiles. Verify details across platforms and look for reviews on Glassdoor or Trustpilot to confirm legitimacy.

Never Pay to Get a Job

Legitimate employers never require payment for applications, training, background checks, or equipment. Always reject upfront payment requests or demands for bank details, even if they claim it's for purchasing necessary work gear on your behalf.

Safeguard Your Personal Information

Protect sensitive data like SSN, bank details, or ID copies. Share this only after accepting a formal, written job offer. Ensure it's submitted via a secure company system or portal, never through insecure channels like standard email attachments.

Scrutinize Communication & Interviews

Watch for communication red flags: poor grammar, generic emails (@gmail), vague details, or undue pressure. Be highly suspicious of interviews held only via text or chat apps; legitimate companies typically use video or phone calls.

Beware of Unrealistic Offers

If an offer's salary or benefits seem unrealistically high for the work involved, be cautious. Research standard pay for similar roles. Offers that appear 'too good to be true' are often scams designed to lure you into providing information or payment.

Insist on a Formal Contract

Always secure and review a formal, written job offer or employment contract before starting work or sharing final personal details. Ensure it clearly defines your role, compensation, key terms, and conditions to avoid misunderstandings or scams.
